Unless someone here is diabetic and underwent LL or knows someone who is diabetic and underwent LL then I would be careful in taking their advice. I think this a matter best discussed with your doctor.

Completely agree with this. No one on here would be qualified to answer that. As a nurse I can say that the risk of complication is far higher than a non-diabetic, no matter how well you can navagate your BSL's.

I talked with ortho doc he said i should bring them a paper from tge diabetes doctor that my blood glucose is well monitored and i have to get the agreement from diabetes doc that therecs no risk if i monitor my blood glucose. The only complication is anesthesia which s i m worried about. I really need twice control of blood glucose otgerwise risks r high
